Game 5: vs FGCU (1-1) on Wednesday, November 19th at 7:00 pm

[MasonFanatic]

This is the first all-time meeting between George Mason and Florida Gulf Coast.

FGCU has been one of the better mid-majors in the country in recent years.

The Eagles are currently 1-1 with a win over a non-D1 and a 77-51 loss to Davidson.

The Patriots should win this one, but they can't shoot like they did for the first three quarters on Friday.

Discuss.

Davidson has a good women's team (4-1), with their loss @ Miss St by 9. All their 4 wins are by 20-30 pts

Davidson was just outside the big 3 last year in the A10 of Richmond, Mason and St Joe's, so glad to see their performance so far - especially with the possibility that St Joe's may have fallen off some. SJU was not able to keep their star player from transferring like Richmond and we were.

Mason leading 31-27 at. half. Volker playing well at both ends . Walton a bit subpar, Harris with 2 fouls in 1stQ sat rest of half.

Good defensive second half. Pulled away despite not shooting well in the second half. 0-13 for the game from 3. We'll need to improve at the offensive end to be competitive with UMd on Sunday.

Significant minutes by Amoaeteng who adds a lot of speed, but seems a bit uncertain as a pg in the half-court offense.

That was an incredible defensive performance, basically shut them out for most of the 2nd half.

Held them to 14! total points in 2nd half, with 3 of those points coming in the last 15 seconds against entirely backups.

3rd qtr: after they tied the game at the 8:16 mark, held them to 1 pt the rest of the qtr.

4th qtr: they did not score until 6:33 left.

That is a stretch of nearly 12 minutes where they only allowed a single free throw.
